SPACE SHUTTLE FLY OVER 9/21/2012

I LEFT MY HOME @ 4AM... AN HOUR LATER THAN I HAD ORIGINALLY PLANNED... I GOT THE LAST PARKING SPACE WHEN I ARRIVED @ 4:30AM. BY 6AM, THE ROAD UP THE MOUNTAIN WAS CLOSED. THE VIEW AREA, AND THE HILLS UP AND DOWN WERE CRAWLING WITH PHOTOGS.... PROS... AMATEURS... VIDEO CAMERAS.... iPHONES... YOU NAME IT.... IT BECAME NECESSARY TO STAKE OUT MY 3 FEET OF PERSONAL SPACE, AND STAND IN ONE SPOT FOR 6 HOURS, OR ELSE RISK LOSING MY PRIMO LOCATION, AS THE MOSH PIT GREW FROM A DOZEN, TO HUNDREDS OF LONG GREY, LENSES EAGERLY CHOMPING AT THE BIT. GOING TO THE BATHROOM WAS NOT AN OPTION...
THE CACOPHONY OF RAPID FIRE 12 fps CAMERAS GOING OFF SIMULTANEOUSLY, AS THE SHUTTLE APPEARED SUDDENLY OVER OUR SHOULDERS FROM THE NORTHWEST, WAS UNCANNY... ENJOY... E
